[Steve Mobs]

WTF!? This can only be the real deal or a Hackintosh. Either way good news.

Is this real

 

[YoHo]

uh... YAY?

 

[apple.net]

Good job!

 

[zorahk]

That's the real deal, look at the BIOS and motherboard descriptions.

 

[Steve Mobs]

I don't think it's a Hackintosh... it says:

Motherboard - Apple Inc. Mac-F22589C8
BIOS - Apple Inc. MBP61.88Z.004C.B00.1001251657

I was configuring my ThinkPad when I found it.

EDIT: zorahk just said that.

Okay, I'll bite: what is the MacBook Pro 6,1? Is that the currently shipping model? Or is this a sneak peek at some new version?

Downloaded the page incase Apple decides to invoke the NDA ban hammer on Geek Bench

6,1 (and 6,2) are the semi-confirmed successors to the current laptop line. This is the first time we've seen actual stats of the laptop(s).

Judging by the fact it's got an i7, I assume that 6,1 is a 17" or comparatively larger sized of the laptop family.

 

[pacers721]

wow

 

[Steve Mobs]

Are x,1's usually 17"? And x,2 -- 15"?

 

[Blindphleb]

Cool actual information! So tired of speculations.

Sorry guys, not happening.

(I'm probably wrong, I forgot that they do indeed use 4 digits in the suffix for new hardware)

 

[zorahk]

that wouldn't be the first time apple has shipped a different build on a new model though.

Thank you most kindly, sirs and/or madams.

I think I want one. {lust}

Not necessarily, The designations aren't a reliable gauge of the laptop's size. For instance, while 5,2 is the current 17"; 4,1 was the 17" the generation before.

 

[jpefjr]

This is potentially good news. Two things get me excited about this - the first is that it's using a Core i7-620M instead of the Core i5. The second is that this is a 32-bit geekbench score and from what I've seen of the Geekbench scores on the MacPro 5,2 the 64-bit score are ~8% higher.

 

[Blindphleb]

What does the Build 10C3067 mean?

 

[Chrysaor]

Unless someone went through the trouble faking all the information (easy to do with a hack), looks like the real deal.

 

[Steve Mobs]

So that means this is very possible?

15" i7-620M = $2300 - $2600.

 

[JacaByte]

I wouldn't want an i7 in my MacBook; currently they only work when tethered to a power outlet, unless you're fine with a 1 hour battery life. (e.g. there is no mobile version of the i7 yet)

Can you guys elaborate on your statements and the reasoning behind them? You seem confident in whatever it is you are asserting, but it really is not clear what that is exactly.

 

[Melodeath]

1) Who would currently have a new MBP? Seems like only someone in Cupertino
2) Why would they do a test on this site where people would find it?

Are you on crack?
